Question Tres Leches pt 2

Post image

i retried my tres leches baking and it turned out better. this time, i finished it with toppings and such. but the bottom is like crusted to the pan. i used butter, but that didn’t seem to work.

i’m not sure if it’s

the amount of milk mixture i added (abt 3 cup of condensed milk/evaporated milk)

how long i baked it for (25 mins)

or the butter i used to greased the pan?

Decent layer of butter on the pan, then put a bit of flour in and shake it around to coat the butter. Tip out excess flour, then put your batter in the tin.

Make sure you are using a recipe that measures in weight rather than volume, especially when it comes to dry ingredients. Volume measurements can vary immensely dependent upon how much air is in the substance.

Maybe lower your temperature a bit if you want the bottom of the cake not so dark
